Review of the Week: Primer (Nov 5-11)

Posted by ChickAdvisor Team | Monday November 5, 2012

Before you bake a cake, you need to pre-heat the oven. Before you paint a wall, you need to prime it. Beauty is no different! Great makeup starts with your skin and part of a flawless foundation routine should be primer.

Primer helps your foundation last longer, prevents caking and creasing and also allows your foundation to slide on smoothly. It's a must-have in any makeup bag so it's essential that you find one that works for you. This week when you review a primer, you will be entered to win a prize!

The more reviews you add the better your chances are of winning. If you already have a primer in mind to review, then head on over here and add it! Or look through our list of existing reviews for some inspiration over here.

Good luck chicks!

I can't remember the name but even though it felt so nice going on I felt awkward putting foundation on top of it. Who knows, maybe I'm just not doing it right. Later in the day I notice a small bit of caking effect which is always super bad.

Now when I wear primer under my makeup i never break out anymore or get any zits. It just gives a nicer finish & glow to your complexion. So i love it. The name of the primers im using now are - - HD High Definition Primer from Sephora -Primer from Clinque (pore refining solution)
